Description Ixabepilone is an epothilone B analog developed by Bristol-Myers Squibb as a cancer drug. On October 16, 2007, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved ixabepilone for the treatment of aggressive metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer no longer responding to currently available chemotherapies. Ixabepilone is administered through injection, and will be marketed under the trade name Ixempra. [Wikipedia] Ixabepilone is a semisynthetic analogue of epothilone B. It has a lactone–lactam modification that
minimizes susceptibility to esterase degradation.
